This is a beta preview release featuring the calamares graphical installer (the "Install Parabola" desktop shortcut). As such, it may look and behave somewhat crudely; but most normal functionality is expected to work properly. Please do report any bugs that you may find to the Parabola "Installation Media" bug tracker (the "Report a Bug" desktop shortcut). If you are connected to the internet and have any other questions or comments, feel free to join the Parabola support chat (the "Parabola IRC Channel" desktop shortcut).

This LiveCD is running the LXDE desktop environment; but note that the installer included with this edition will install the Mate desktop environment instead, which will look and behave somewhat differently. The installed system will have mostly all of the same programs installed though.

Installation requires 9GB of disk space. Installation from the 'netinstall' ISOs require an active connection to the internet and 2GB RAM (or swap space); whereas the 'complete' ISOs contain everything necessary to install Parabola offline and require substantially less RAM. The title of this window indicates the distinction.


Known Issues

    The locale selected in the installer only applies to the installer. The installed system will start in English/UTF8.
